‘Mama, baby!’: hero parrot saves choking baby
|
Willie got his award during a “Breakfast of Champions” event on Friday attended by Governor Bill Ritter and Mayor John Hickenlooper. |
“The part where she turned blue is always when my heart drops no matter how many times I’ve heard it,” Hannah’s mother, Samantha Kuusk, told KCNC-TV. “My heart drops in my stomach and I get all teary eyed.” |
She saved Hannah by performing the Heimlich manoeuvre but said Willie “is the real hero”. |
Willie repeatedly yelled “Mama, baby” and flapped his wings. Ms Howard returned to find the girl turning blue. |
In November, Willie’s owner, Megan Howard, was babysitting for a toddler. Ms Howard left the room and the little girl, Hannah, started to choke on her breakfast. |
Willie, a Quaker parrot, has been given the Denver Red Cross chapter’s Animal Lifesaver Award. |
A parrot whose cries of alarm alerted his US owner when a little girl choked on her breakfast has been honoured as a hero. |
| Hero … Megan Howard, with Willie. |
